New Parent Counseling in Park Ridge
Support for New Parents
What Therapy Looks Like
At Crescent Moon, we understand that parenthood is a difficult but rewarding experience, and sometimes you need a little bit of help during those harder periods. Your therapist will give you space to talk about your emotional struggles before working with you to create solutions to those problems. These solutions will take the form of a treatment plan, which may involve acknowledging, coping with, and regulating your emotions.
During your consultation, we will discuss your personal and family history of mental conditions, along with your current symptoms. This will help us determine the most suitable therapist and therapy approach for your specific needs. With that information, we will book your telehealth sessions and begin your path to healing and personal growth.

For Fathers Seeking Guidance
Although our services typically focus on the maternal aspects of reproduction, fathers are also encouraged to talk with us about their struggles with parenthood. We want to ensure that you feel prepared for your new family by prioritizing skills for coping with parental stress.
Forging a bond with your child can be hard, and so can honing your nurturing skills. But do not worry, we are here to show you that being a paternal figure is a rewarding role. Our services will always encourage you to keep growing as a father, even when it seems like your mental health is holding you back.
How Therapy Can Help New Parents
Getting new parent counseling in Park Ridge, can help you show up better for both you and your family.
Managing Stress
Our therapeutic methods focus on first acknowledging your stressors before finding ways to reduce them. Your well-being is always at the heart of our sessions.
Parenting Knowledge
Sometimes your main roadblock is understanding how best to navigate your family’s unique needs. We’ll provide a listening ear as well as therapeutic nurturing.
Solving Problems
Parenthood is a complex puzzle with seemingly infinite pieces. Therapy can help you start seeing the bigger picture.
Providing You With Support During Parenthood
As the old saying goes: it takes a village to raise a child, but a healthy support system is also crucial for new mothers and their partners. From infancy to toddlerhood, a new child can be quite a handful. Luckily, we have hands to spare to care for your emotional state while you cradle your baby.
New Parent Counseling Addresses:
Motherhood
It’s already stressful enough being a mom-to-be, but life after birth is a whole new challenge. It can be hard to balance all those new stressors, much less manage them.
Fatherhood
After nine months of supporting and empowering your amazing partner, it may feel difficult to understand how to continue that support into your child’s infancy.
If you are ready to begin your first steps toward perinatal mental health, book an appointment with Crescent Moon Therapy.

Discover Mental Wellness
For any stage of the reproductive process or beyond, we’re here to help you get connected with the therapy you need.
Absolutely! The experience of pregnancy goes beyond the physical changes for the birthing person; it is a journey for everyone involved in the making and raising of the child. That includes fathers! Both you and your partner are welcome to sit down and talk about any issues you’re going through.
It is worth mentioning that our therapy will primarily center around the perinatal journey. If your partner needs therapy outside our expertise, we may match them with one of our therapists who works with fathers or recommend another provider in Park Ridge.
Every single child is different, therefore no parental journey is the same. From sleepless nights to difficulties with newborn health concerns, you may be experiencing completely new sides to parenting that you have not seen before. Additionally, you may be having a more challenging time now that you have multiple little ones to take care of.
With all these factors, it is no wonder why you are finding it harder to address your parental stressors. Thankfully, our new parent counseling in Park Ridge is built to support you and answer any of your questions.
Absolutely! We have a list of insurance plans that we accept, but we know you may prefer to pay without it. That is why we offer monthly superbills covering services that might be eligible for reimbursement. Just remember to talk with your insurance provider before starting your services so that you know whether or not you have to pay the full contracted rate.
